38 years ago I was in labor for over an excruciating 24 hours with my first son ….. a couple, good friends of ours, came to see me in the hospital the next day, and the husband said, “You must feel like you’ve been run over by a Mack truck.”

I got to thinking that not only trucking companies will be affected negatively by the trump tariffs, but also companies like Amazon, UPS. Fed Ex, etc.
